This I believe Reflection…
Self Discovery: What I found out while
I was making this project was my past, and what I had gained throughout my life
so far. Although I did grow nostalgic over the subject, I found that karate and
that short experience within the CCD classroom was what morphed me into what I
want out of my life. I realized that I find something different and challenging
within the teaching field, and it’s something that will keep me interested and
busy.
Fun: What I found fun about this
project was mostly the story writing, but that was more essay based. I think
that even though it was a small part, the ending song ‘twinkle twinkle little
star’ was the best part of making this short video. I loved working with some
of my friends in order to put it together, and I enjoy adding humor to my work.
Rewarding: I found out about myself,
and I was able to work with new software such as Microsoft Movie. I thought it
was fun, and although I’m sure that there are better movie makers out there, I
found Microsoft Movie very accessible. Not very handy though, but still…I took
what I could get.
Difficult: Working with Microsoft Movie
maker. It wouldn’t take any of the audio tracks I wanted to add, and even when
I went through the trouble of making the audio re-save files, it was still
difficult. Audacity was not much of a help, but then again, I had never really
worked with the program. I resorted to ‘Record Tool.’ I found it deep within
the program accessories of my own computer, and it was a lot more helpful than
anything else.
Easy: Making the essay. The only hard
part about the essay was keeping it to a minimum, and well as trying to focus
on the main points I wanted to tell the readers and listeners about. I also
found that it was slightly troublesome trying to figure out what I wanted to
tell everyone. Divulging in deep information on the computer is simply one
thing that I’m not sure I’m ready for, but I suppose it has to start somewhere.
Classroom uses: I would try not to use
Microsoft Movie Maker in my classroom. I would instead work towards Garage Band
and IMovie. I have not yet worked with IMovie, but I’m guessing that it is a
lot more accessible to use within a classroom. Within my classroom, I would be
happier to speak about my becoming a teacher, and I would love telling my
future students about what had made me want to become a teacher.
